Vim Spelling dictionary (OED)

Dear List,

I'd like to generate and use a British English dictionary using OED
spellings (which are different from the usual en_gb spellings, but
essential for some academic work).

I've tried doing the following:

There is a source list at http://en-gb.pyxidium.co.uk/dictionary/OOo.php

I've tried taking both the wordlist and the en_GB-oed.aff file
provided there and running them through the command:

mkspell! ~/.vim/oed ~/Downloads/en-GB-oed-wlist.txt

But in both cases, although mkspell seems to run correctly, if I set
spelllang to oed, all words are marked as incorrect.

Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?

Best wishes,

Nicholas
